FURBABIES ARE THE BEST!
Pet care experience
I was very fortunate to have been a pet parent for 11 years of a big beautiful brown pit/Staffordshire fur-boy. Animals are priority to me in particular doggies. My life revolves around doggies and sometimes kitty cats. Please note: Boarding is only for doggies. I also offer and specialize in basic grooming eg. bathing for doggies, in particular, older pups for a flat fee. Thank you. Why do I love taking care of dogs? Because the best company I love is in the company of dogs. When I am not dog-walking, and pet-sitting I volunteer at local shelters and for nationwide organizations. Eg. The Sato Project and Bide a Wee. I welcome all with an open heart and arms. It makes no difference to me large, medium, small, young, senior and geriatric. I do not have any breed preferences. They are all beautiful and special in their own way. PLEASE NOTE: In the section of dog size weight preference, I am open to doggie up to 60 pounds as long as our walks do not entail lunging. Please note for dogs boarding, beginning on a Fridays I am available beginning 6p.m. on Fridays thru Sunday night no later than 9p.m. I can be open to another night with the commitment that the pup(s) are picked up no later than 8:30 a.m. Monday. Please be advised: Meet and greets is imperative before going forward on all bookings. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile.
Reviews
This was the first time I left my pups Chance & Molly with Diana. She made me feel so comfortable leaving them with her. She sent me lots of videos and pictures of them and keep me up to date on what they were doing. She took them on lots of long walks and gave them massages every day. They looked so happy being with her in the pictures she sent. Will definitely use her and again and recommend her to my family and friends. Thanks again Diana.
Thank you for another great experience Diane. I had peace of mind knowing Bella was in good hands with you while I was away in business! The pictures are much appreciated and thanks for going out of your way to make sure she was comfy!
This was the first time I used Rover and had the best experience ever with Diana. Diana took care of Bella my 4-year-old cat via drop-in visits for 4 days while I was away. It's not easy to leave your pet alone let alone have someone come into your apartment but Diana made us feel very comfortable by taking the time to come over and meet us before we agreed to book. She is very sweet, kind and experienced with pets. My kitty Bella loved her and I felt at ease leaving her in Diana's care. While I was away Diana sent me photos and videos of Bella everyday and I appreciated that so much. I look forward to booking Diana again soon!
She did an AMAZING job with my furbaby! The meet and greet went very well. She was patient with her and sent many updates throughout the stay. Sadie appeared always happy and enjoying her stay while I was away. She took her on walks and fed her plenty. Diana was always responsive with me and helped reduce any anxiety and stress I may have had. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment
My home is very clean and safe. I disinfect thoroughly after each guest(s) eg. beds, blankets, bowls, combs, brushes, toys and floor. Precautions are taken by not having items eg. glass, buttons, paper, nails etc., that may interfere with playtime and safety. I also provide nice classical music which they all love. I also provide mini "amenities" such as, cleaning gooky eyes awwww...paws and mini massages.

Information Diana M. would like to know about your pet
It is important for me to know if your doggie has any medical conditions including food allergies. Also doggies social skills? If any? with other doggies, animals and humans. Also I'd like to know if they are comfortable or not receiving affection and or kisses because I love giving kisses! Please note: Pickup and Drop off is possible All costs pet parent(s) responsibility including out of state. PLEASE READ: PUPS ARE WELCOMED TO ALL FURNITURE EXCEPT MY BED AND 1 SOFA UNLESS YOU CAN PROVIDE A GOOD QUALITY WATERPROOF ITEM TO COVER THIS ONE SOFA ONLY (NOT THE BED) IN MY HOME. Thank you.
A typical day
My home is a very safe, peaceful, and loving, environment for all of my furry guests. I always do my best to ensure they feel relax and comfortable, such as, indoor playtime., listening to soft music, brushing, and even reading. That's right reading! Play dates can also be part of their stay with pet parent(s) approval only. When we go on walks initially the first 5 to 15 minutes is focus on the walk, in general, in the condominium area near me. It is nice and quiet, and clean. Then leisure time takes place, such as, greeting other doggies, and humans, of course, if allowed by the pet parent(s) Now Off leash under any circumstances is not allowed outdoors. In other words, I do not participate in dog runs. Your dog(s) spends most of the time under my care/supervision. They are welcomed in all areas of my place (except my bed) when I am home, including the kitchen. I love when they "help" out cooking or tidying up. So cute!

As for my schedule in general, its very simple. My life revolves around the fur-kids. Most of the time I am home, especially weekends excluding 10 :30 - 3pm M-Thurs. Now having mention this I am open to boarding commencing Fridays at 6 p.m. Please note: if you request a weekend with an extra overnite stay pickup should be no later than 9:30 a.m. on Monday. As for potty breaks the only time I can offer 2-4 potty breaks is on weekends and holidays because I am home full time. As for drop-in visits only days I am open between 11 thru 3 is Saturday, Sundays and holidays. Thank you.
